[QUOTE="Great Asp, post: 14690856, member: 53322"] You are reading my mind on the wheels/tires. No, I do not see myself going to the track with the 2014, just need better traction. To me, the stock gears are not helpful at all. With the stock exhaust, windows up, the non-existent "feel" for the clutch, and the stock gears even with the brake roll-back feature it can be a challenge on a hill from a dead stop. When I come out harder with the clutch the wheels spin (they shouldn't), or too light and the clutch takes a beating. I have done a bunch of trolling on the forum, and (I am guessing) 3:73's will be best "for me". But it is just a guess really. I think I will run the Nitto's on the stock rims at first, THEN after the other mods at the end of the summer maybe see about new wheels, or buying someone else's PP wheels and having those widened. Then I can get the car on the lift and see what I need to fit the larger rim width. You guys are great, I really appreciate the advice! I will post pictures and details as I go. E [/QUOTE]
